Melting Temperature of Metal Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Melting Temperature of Metal?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

T m = \frac{\frac{Q \cdot (1 - R)}{s \cdot V \cdot 4.2} - L fusion}{c} + θ ambient

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

T m = \frac{\frac{4200J \cdot (1 - 0.5)}{2.4 \cdot 0.04m³ \cdot 4.2} - 4599.997J/kg}{0.421J/kg*°C} + 55.02°C

Next Step Convert Units

∴

T m = \frac{\frac{4200J \cdot (1 - 0.5)}{2.4 \cdot 0.04m³ \cdot 4.2} - 4599.997J/kg}{0.421J/(kg*K)} + 328.17K

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

T m = \frac{\frac{4200 \cdot (1 - 0.5)}{2.4 \cdot 0.04 \cdot 4.2} - 4599.997}{0.421} + 328.17

Next Step Evaluate

∴

T m = 1773.14941409343K

Next Step Convert to Output's Unit

∴

T m = 1499.99941409343°C

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

T m = 1499.9994°C
